Lydon: Rock & Roll is Dead and He Don't Care
Kris Needs, New York Rocker, March 1980
AN HOUR of music served in a round metal tin, the twelve-inch form giving depth and punch. Once again, Public Image Ltd. have jabbed music biz tradition in the eye by wrapping their record in something different and fun. Ironically, tradition bit back when the cynics hit at them for charging $15.00 for the three-record package (in actual fact, about the same price you'd pay for three twelve-inch singles anyway).
